The The Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) has issued a warning:
The Nurofen Plus batches to look out for are:
'Reckitt Benckiser (UK) Ltd has received three reports of rogue Seroquel XL 50mg tablets in cartons of three different batches of Nurofen Plus tablets. We understand cartons of Nurofen Plus tablets contained only rogue cut-down blisters of Seroquel XL tablets and no Nurofen Plus tablets were present. The rogue Seroquel XL tablet cut-down blisters included parallel imported tablets (from two different PLPI companies) and originator product.'Is that important you may be asking. Well yes it is as Nurofen is a pain-killer whilst Seroquel is a prescription-only anti-psychotic drug used to treat disorders that include schizophrenia, mania and bipolar depression.
The Nurofen Plus batches to look out for are:
Pack size | Batch number | Expiry date | PL | First distributed |
32 Tablets | 13JJ | 03/2014 | 00327/0082 | 30 April 2011 |
32 Tablets | 57JJ | 05/2014 | 00063/0376 | 21 June 2011 |
32 Tablets | 49JJ | 05/2014 | 00063/0376 | 1 July 2011 |
